don't try to free null bufpool
in linux there is a "rule" that all memory free routines are supposed to
also accept NULL as argument, so I think this patch is not needed (and
even wrong)

Hmm. The mm/mempool.c:mempool_destroy function immediately
dereferences the pointer passed to it:

void mempool_destroy(mempool_t *pool)
{
if (pool->curr_nr != pool->min_nr)
BUG(); /* There were outstanding elements */
free_pool(pool);
}

... so I'm not sure mempool_destroy fits the rule. Are you suggesting
that the patch should instead modify mempool_destroy?

Having mempool_destroy() be the one that checks seems safer, then callers
won't forget to check - easier to just check in one place.
If that's what you want, then here's a patch. If this is acceptable I can
create another one that removes the (then pointless) NULL checks from all
callers - let me know if that's wanted.

don't try to free null bufpool
in linux there is a "rule" that all memory free routines are supposed to
also accept NULL as argument, so I think this patch is not needed (and
even wrong)
Hmm. The mm/mempool.c:mempool_destroy function immediately
void mempool_destroy(mempool_t *pool)
{
if (pool->curr_nr != pool->min_nr)
BUG(); /* There were outstanding elements */
free_pool(pool);
}
... so I'm not sure mempool_destroy fits the rule. Are you suggesting
that the patch should instead modify mempool_destroy?
hmm perhaps... Jens?
Not really my call, but I agree we should make mempool_destroy()
resilient against !pool to follow the path of least surprise.

NACK. this changes devices nodes based on a compile-time option.
I'm not sure I follow. This configuration option sets the number of
partitions per device in the driver. It doesn't create device nodes.
If the user has udev, then the device nodes are created correctly (on
Fedora Core 3), so that if the driver is configured with 1 partition
per device, the minor numbers for the disks are low.
The folks I've talked to who aren't using udev but want one partition
per device already know that they have to re-create their device
files.
It changes a kernel ABI, so people that have different config options
set can't use the same userland. It's a really big no-go.
I don't know if it matters now that we have udev. When udev manages
the device nodes it all just works, so there's practically not much of
an issue. The UUIDs in Software RAID and LVM make this even less of
an issue. Besides, if they aren't using udev and are using a custom
kernel *and* using this configure option, then they're changing the
ABI on purpose for a practical benefit.

If you're saying that it's bad in principal, then that's another
story. If that's what you mean, then it's a Linux policy issue, and
to follow convention I'd think that we'd need another major number.
That would be like the partitionable md devices, etc.

To me, the latter seems like the uglier way to go, and it would be
more permanent, while the configure option seems ugly but convenient
for this transitional stage, and could go away when high minor numbers
are well supported on the systems currently in use.

Yes, it's a policy issue. We don't do this weird config option anywhere

Just tell people to update their userland to a 2.6-copatible
version.
Even if the glibc, coreutils, etc., get it right, some programs try to
parse the device node bits themselves and fail to find all the minor
number bits.

Making this configurable makes it possible for a debian sarge user or
a Slackware 10 user to run a 2.6.11 kernel and use up to 256 disks.
Even a Fedora Core 3 user has an mdadm that balks at minor numbers
like 1120. By using one partition per device, I can use FC3's mdadm
and have everything work.

The AoE users started doing this themselves, but this configuration
option allows non-C-programmers to do the same. It's helpful during
the transitional period and should be removed when the userland
software that people are actually running has caught up.

+there are no other pages available, then deadlock may occur when a
+free page is needed for the sk_buff allocation. This situation has
+not been observed, but it would be nice to eliminate any potential for
+deadlock under memory pressure.
+
+Because ATA over Ethernet is not fragmented by the kernel's IP code,
+the destructore member of the struct sk_buff is available to the aoe
+driver. By using a mempool for allocating all but the first few
+sk_buffs, and by registering a destructor, we should be able to
+efficiently allocate sk_buffs without introducing any potential for
+deadlock.
